Random strangers have suddenly started attacking Vincent with murderous intent. His existence as an unremarkable man is overturned, and as things spiral violently out of control, he is forced to flee and change his life completely.... A nerve-shredding, ground-breaking movie riding the new wave of French horror.

Critics Consensus

Vincent Must Die's slow turn from absurd comedy to tense, horror-tinged drama is supported by smart storytelling and compelling work from Karim Leklou in the lead role.

Variety

A punchy summation of post-pandemic — rather than pre-millennial — nervousness and malaise.

Castang and screenwriter Mathieu Naert seem to tease us with the multitude of exciting paths that the film could go down before ultimately choosing the least interesting one.

Rated: B-

A little bit 28 Days Later, a little bit The Quiet Place, and a lot The Sadness, Vincent Must Die is a must see.
